Troubleshooting steps

Problem: How do I configure the connector to use HTTPS?
Resolution:

  1. Open the file %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\CONFIG\machine.config file
  2. Find the three Dfs references DfsAgentService, DfsContextRegistryService, DfsDefaultService
  3. Change the attribute value for the following element <security mode="None"> The value must be <security mode="Transport"> for https to work

Problem: Could Not Load Assembly Emc.Documentum.FS.DataModel.Shared.dll, version number 6.5.0.231
Resolution:
Configure the Microsoft Documentum Connector to use DFS 6.5 SP3 or above. Please note that this is not an officially supported work around, 6.5SP2+hotfix1049 is the supported DFS version with sufficient testing.

  1. Install your EMC DLLs into the GAC
  2. Open the file %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\CONFIG\machine.config

Add following dependantAssembly elements to the file.
Please note that you must replace the “X.Y.Z.W” with the actual DLL version in the DFS package you will use.
To get your EMC DLL versions, please refer to the guide below.
